Islam Starves Pregnant Women?
The problem with Islamo Fascists is their warped belief only brutality impresses people. It is a classic signature of extreme insecurity, so it is doubly confounding to most people who are reasonably confident and not spooked to violence by the smallest things. For example, what is so impressive about starving pregnant women as a way to prove manliness?
Local Taliban militants seized and burned thousands of kilogrammes of food destined for pregnant women in a tribal area of Pakistan, officials said on Sunday.
The food, mainly lentils and cooking oil, was taken from a hospital in the district of South Waziristan and had been supplied by the aid charity Save the Children to feed pregnant women suffering from malnutrition.
A Taliban activist said they were destroyed because “foreign NGOs want to harm our future generations.â€
Darwin was right you know. Only an idiot would starve their children to protect them from outside influences. To be so inept, so impotent has to feel killing your children was the only way to leave your mark on them (the ‘dead’ future generations) is just mind boggling. No wonder al-Qaeda and Bin Laden are losing support in the Muslim Streets.

The myth never dies here.
How about this:
Teacher charged in teddy bear case
Muhammad Teddy Bear Madness Update. This woman is being charged under a law against “insulting religion and inciting hatred” for allowing schoolchildren to name a teddy bear Muhammad. It’s an interesting illustration of how hate laws can be used. From CNN (thanks to all who sent this in):
LONDON, England (CNN) — A British teacher arrested in Sudan after allowing her class to name a teddy bear “Mohammed” has been charged by authorities with offending religion, state-run media in Sudan report.
A spokeswoman for the British Foreign Office confirmed Wednesday that Gillian Gibbons had been charged under Article 125 of Sudan’s constitution, the law relating to insulting religion and inciting hatred….
Under Sudan’s Sharia law, insulting Islam is punishable with 40 lashes, a jail term of up to six months or a fine.
Boulos said naming the teddy bear was “a totally innocent mistake” and that Gibbons had never intended to cause offense.
Will no one in the world stand up and call this madness? In a sane world, we would see the UN denouncing the Sudanese government, as well as the State Department and more. Instead, we see pleading with these monsters: it was “a totally innocent mistake,” you see. In other words, the lashes would be completely justified if she had meant to poke fun at Muhammad, but she didn’t mean to, you see, so please give her clemency.
Will no one stand up and call this what it is: sheer, outrageous madness?
I flashed on Janet Reno when she burned Waco as I read this.
